Gas stations have played a significant role in our surroundings since the 1920s, with early modernist designs such as Hans Poelzig's iconic gas station and the Stuttgarter Schule standardized filling stations on the Reichsautobahn. These designs paved the way for Lothar Götz's modular post-war constructions, which set the stage for standardized corporate designs that flourished later. While the design and construction of gas stations have become a major focus for renowned architecture and engineering firms, this building type has received limited attention in academic discourse. In his book, Franz Arlart examines and systematizes the development of gas stations in Germany, considering functional, technical, and symbolic factors. This comprehensive book presents the architectural evolution of gas stations from 1920 to 2020 and outlines the trends that will shape their design in the future.
